Hello community!

Is there an effect or a better way to reduce the moire patterns from scanned images?

So far I have tried using  "Surface blur" followed by  "Sharpen +" and seems to work but if there is a tool or you know better ways to remove the moire l would like to hear.  Thanks!

Hi @Eli

 

Median would be my choice - with a large amount of patience depending on how good you would like the finished product.

Thanks AndrewDavid, I thought about selecting small areas and using some type of blur but as you said it takes patience. I also want to keep the dark outlines as dark as possible that is why I used "Sharpen +".

You can duplicate the layer and apply Gaussian blur to top layer, then change blending mode to overlay:

Alternatively you can resize up 200%, followed by resize down 50%:
